Design & Planning

There is a lot more to landscape lighting that just pointing a light at a tree. There is both a technical and an artistic side to creating a dynamic scene. It is our goal on each project which we are involved in to create: 

  • Depth: with visual interest both near and far, setting focal points, transition areas and visual destinations. 

  • Perspective: adding visual interest from all possible (perspectives), and creating a continuous rich and effective experience.

  • Symmetry and balance: highlighting structures and forms that have intrinsic beauty.

  • Cohesion: connecting focal points to create a unified design, which sets the stage for a richer experience as the homeowners enter their unique world.

We supply each project with an Autocad layout which shows the wiring diagram, the location of fixtures and the replacement lamps for each fixture. As the foliage grows and the garden changes, this plan becomes more and more valuable. As lamps burn out you will not only need to know which lamp to replace it with but also where to find the fixtures. It can be next to impossible to remember where the fixtures are in the garden and without the plan they could be lost in the foliage forever.
